Some Interesting Stats On Arrests Of Women
In 1930, the British govt arrested 17,000 women for their involvement in the Dandi Yatra (Salt March).
During 1937 to 1947 (10 Years), they arrested 5,000 women involved in the freedom struggle.
From 2004 to 2006, the govt of India arrested 90,000 women of all ages under 498A. On the average, 27,000 women per year are being arrested under this flawed law. These are stats from the NCRB.

The family of the writer was tortured by the Indian Police in an attempt to extort over a $100,000 by holding them in custody for over a week. The police, in cahoots with the magistrate and the PP, did this due to the ridiculous allegations made in a 498A case by his embittered ex-wife. She filed the case years after he and his family had last seen her. Thousands of 498A cases are filed each year in India by women seeking to wreak vengeance on their husbands and in-laws. Enormous sums are extorted from intimidated families implicated in these cases by corrupt Indian police officers and elements of the Indian judiciary.

judegement on 20th november 2007.

cruelty and dissertation has been dismissed by family court, mumbai. the judgement has been given
on 7th december 2007. but i will the written copy only after 1 month.
my query now is :
1) as i will get the written copy after one month, i doubt that my wife will come and stay at my
house, which is in my mother’s name.
2) how can i prevent her from coming to my house.
3) can she again put 498A section on me and my family.
4) i will be appealing in the high court, till i appeal in the high court how can i prevent myself
and my family from her.
5) can she legally come and stay at my house ?
please help me
Shivpuje
dear mr. shivpuje
since you won the case, and it is proved that it was a false allegation made on you, you can again file a petition for divorce under cruelty(false allegations made on you) i think you filed for the petition 4 divorce, when the 498a was going on, so obviously the court will deny your allegation. but now because it is proved that you are innocent, you can try again.
IN DIVORCE U/S 13HMA thre is special provision for women for grounds for divorce is one year after maintenance order u/s 125 crpc if no cohabitation between spouses occur which is ground given only to women and not men . hence so manyf alse and frivlous cases of maintenance are filed against men and this ground is rarely used by women for divirce
if this ground of one year after maintenance order is also given to men and made gender neutral and like other grounds as one year after RCR decree or legal seperation.
then the chances of false case under 125 crpc will decrease because of fear of divorce and legal extortion of man will decrease
(2) A wife may also present a petition for the dissolution of her marriage by a decree of divorce on the ground,—
(i) in the case of any marriage solemnised before the commencement of this Act, that the husband had married again before such commencement or that any other wife of the husband married before such commencement was alive at the time of the solemnisation of the marriage of the petitioner:
Provided that in either case the other wife is alive at the time of the presentation of the petition; or
(ii) that the husband has, since the solemnisation of the marriage, been guilty of rape, sodomy or 8[bestiality; or]
9[(iii) that in a suit under section 18 of the Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act, 1956 (78 of 1956), or in a proceeding under section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (2 of 1974) [or under the corresponding section 488 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898 (5 of 1898)], a decree or order, as the case may be, has been passed against the husband awarding maintenance to the wife notwithstanding that she was living apart and that since the passing of such decree or order, cohabitation between the parties has not been resumed for one year or upwards; or
file a petition for legal separation..
did u file for divorce first or did she file for 498 first ?????
you will buy some time with that
My dear friend,
Since she has already filed a criminal case against u and u have won it. This itself says that she is wrong.
Second since it is very much clear that she is totally wrong, so I don’t think she will come and stay with u.
Third in case if she comes and stays then don’t give any kind of respect at all to her or to her family ( in fact I presume that she or her family don’t have any respect in society).
Fourth if she comes then don’t consider now her as your wife, keep with u but in another manner……………hope u r getting………….enjoy the life…………Because respect is given to those who deserve it or have it already but for those who dont have any respect , u also don’t need to give.
Enjoy my friend………….don’t look at behind………..there is nothing only dark……..see in front………someone is waiting for u.
Bye.
Have a nice time.
Dear freind
SC itself has given judgement that false 498a itself is a good ground to seek divorce on basis of mental cruelity. Don’t get her inside your house and if she wants to come you kick them along with their parents. I know the pain of sufferings. get another marry and enjoy the life. why you are wasting your life for this bludy ladies.
All the best
Thanks and regards,
Harish HS
my wife has led an independent life despite my continous support to her from being a housegirl to lecturer with a five figure salary. But now after 16 yrs maarriage she feels free and has fled from home with my child, filed a DV case, NOT LET THE PROTECTION NOTICE TO REACH ME, lived seperately, written love messages to me (copies available)& agreed that it is not possible to live alone & then filed a DIVORCE & CHILD CUSTODY CASE against me ( AFTER 4 MOMTHS). WHAT DOES SHE WANT ??!!!
My contentention is that she is being blackmailed/misled by her brothers.She needs a psychological/marriage counselling.
IS NOT THE DIVORCE & CHILD CUSTODY CASE NULL AND VOID as it shows a malefide intentions of the petitioner or her unsound mind ? WILL IT ALSO REFLECT ON THE DV CASE ??
My son was working as regional sales manager at pharmacetutical company and he was tight schduled in his work and was roaming all the thirty days in month with twenty four hours in view of tight work. there were some misunderstanding between them for some time it was noticed to my notice one fine morning his wife has taken all his belongings to her native place kumbakonam Her father is not advised instead filed an application for separation under 10 of the Hindu marriages act on the grounds of gruelty. Her father intention to get her remarry and intend to send her abroad. The marriage took place in the year 2005 and a child aged 4 is with the mother
The law have gave good protection to the ladies simply state cruety by son father mother. Having enjoyed four years we could analyse her mind her father and mother

how to contend that no cruety was give to her as was alone with her husband for years and has not permitted our family to enter theur house but now blaming son”s father and mother
Please advice
I got married in may 2004.As is usual there used to be quarrel between us but not that serious.I used to love her a lot.I had never told her short comings to my in laws because i don’t want her to be scolded by her parents.But ultimatily it back fired.In march 2006 she filed 498a case against me & my family.And in the month of august 2006 she filed cr.P.C.125 against me.Both the cases are sending.Now in the year 2008 i was denied a central govt job because of this case only.Now the maintenance case is due for judgement this month.Now i am not earning anything and in the final year of law study.498a case has just started where cross exam of my wife is partly completed.In the mean time i have selected a good girl for my marriage.It also her second marriage.I sincerely feel that once any wife lodged a complaint against you under any Act do not ever allow her to come back again.This will discourage other women & make them think twice before making a complaint against you.Thanks
It is given u/s 300 of cr.P.C. That a person once convicted or acquited can not be tried again for the same offence. person shall be prosecuted and convicted for the same offence more than once, it is provided Under article 20(2) of the constitution.The same provision is given u/s 40 of the indian evidence act.Despite all this provisions in the statute the indian courts are blindly taking cognizance of the cases under domestic violence act of 2005 after the Accused are acquited under section 498a.Why the hell are these honourable magistrates not rejecting such applications in the submission level itself?Because the applicant wife files the application under D.V act in the same court which had already acquited all the accused.More over the facts ,issues ,accused etc.Are the same as in 498a and the learned magistrate is is very well acquainted with the case and knows that it is nothing but to harass these innocent people.The court should act tough and imposed fines on the applicant for filing such abusive petitions.Thank you.
As i had posted earlier that a case u/s 498a against me lodged in the yr 2006 is still pending.In the mean while maintenance u/s 125 of cr.P.C. Is awarded rs 800/ p.m.
you can file afresh suit for divorce on the ground of cruelity because you have won the 498 A case . the courts have treated a false 498A case as cruality on wife,s part.

Hi Nilesh,
I am also victim like you. I don’t have much more understanding but i can say if FIR has filled the go for Anticipatory bail. Because if police will arrest the there is more problem. If FIR is filled then you can go for Quash in High court, At least current proceeding will stay for few month. How judge order for 5K ? because if girl is getting 5K then they have collect good money and fight against you. Go to high court against interm maintenance.
In my case all family member have AB and we filled 482 in HC and case has been stayed.
For CRPC125 this case is still pending in family court from last 15 month because we appeared after one year.
Thanks
